Yeah, Mediterranean diet is going to work for me much better in the long run.

So true! My goal is the same as yours as well. I am trying to eat most of my meals at home and to just snack on fruits and veggies. I've also found it very helpful to write everything down but I've been lazy the past couple of days.

May I ask why you chose the South Beach diet? I don't know much about it.
